Standard static foam support surfaces often trap metabolic heat and moisture against the patient's skin, accelerating tissue damage and localized friction. The Protekt® 500 Therapeutic Foam Mattress by Proactive Medical addresses this vulnerability by incorporating proprietary Visco Gel Polymer Technology (VGPT™). This advanced gel-infused core architecture provides superior pressure redistribution while acting as an efficient thermal conduit to enhance microclimate management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core configuration of the Protekt 500 is engineered to combat tissue fatigue under high structural loads. Utilizing gel-infused visco foam combined with high-density, high-resilient die-cut base foam layers, the mattress alters its support properties dynamically. Rather than excessive cradling that locks a patient into a localized hot spot, the VGPT™ material provides progressive support at higher levels of compression. This spreads the patient's weight across a significantly wider surface area, reducing deep tissue strain. Furthermore, the specialized gel particles channel heat away from the patient’s body rapidly, minimizing perspiration and defending against moisture-induced skin maceration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eVisco Gel Polymer Technology (VGPT™):\u003c\/b\u003e Advanced gel-infused foam core dissipates body heat significantly faster than traditional polyurethane structures, eliminating perspiration-induced skin maceration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHigh-Load Pressure Redistribution:\u003c\/b\u003e Delivers progressive structural support under deep compression settings, maximizing surface area distribution to eliminate static tissue fatigue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e30-Degree Sloped Heel Section:\u003c\/b\u003e Anatomically engineered heel zone utilizes an intentional 30° incline to completely redirect interface pressure away from the heel and onto the lower leg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePatient Transfer Support System (PTSS):\u003c\/b\u003e Rigid foam side perimeters eliminate edge rolling, enabling stable lateral patient transfers and secure edge-of-bed sitting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLow-Shear Fluid Impenetrable Cover:\u003c\/b\u003e High-performance stretch nylon top layer lowers friction and skin shear while maintaining an anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, and fluid-resistant protective seal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eExtended Facility Service Life:\u003c\/b\u003e Backed by an industry-leading 15-year non-prorated core warranty, optimizing capital asset lifecycle management for institutional buyers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCore Composition:\u003c\/b\u003e High-density resilient die-cut foam base with VGPT™ (Visco Gel Polymer Technology) top layers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeel Zone Architecture:\u003c\/b\u003e 30-degree sloped incline configured with open-cell memory foam profiling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop Cover Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Vapor-permeable stretch nylon, low-shear\/friction, fluid-resistant, anti-microbial, anti-bacterial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBottom Cover Material:\u003c\/b\u003e Reinforced triple laminate vinyl, fluid-resistant, anti-microbial, fire-retardant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eEnclosure Design:\u003c\/b\u003e 360-degree full perimeter zipper shielded by a heavy-duty Anti-Contamination Flap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeight Capacity:\u003c\/b\u003e 450 lbs. to 500 lbs.
